Manchester United’s final game of the season against Bournemouth has been abandoned following a security alert at Old Trafford.

The Red Devils were set to kick-off against Bournemouth at 3pm along with the nine other scheduled Premier League clashes but the game was delayed after the club confirmed a suspect package had been found in the north west corner of the ground.

The decision to abandon the game was taken shortly after the scheduled kick-off, after the players were hauled off the pitch, while fans in the Stretford End and Sir Alex Ferguson Stand were instructed to leave.

While United’s clash is now off every other 3pm kick-off is continuing as planned, including the pivotal Swansea City v Manchester City clash which will see Louis van Gaal’s side miss out on Champions League qualification should their local rivals leave Wales with a point.
